'if today was your last'

dark Horse, 2008

my best friend gave me the best advice, he said each days a gift and not a given right, leave no stone unturned, leave your fears behind, and try to take the path less traveled by, that first step you take is the longest stride

if today was your last day, if tomorrow was too late, could you say goodbye to yesterday, would you live each moment like your last, leave old pictures in the past, donate every dime you have, if today was your last day

going against the grain should be a way of life, what's worth the price is always worth the fight, every second counts cause there's no second try, so live it like you're never living twice, don't take the free ride in your whole life

if today was your last day, if tomorrow was too late, could you say goodbye to yesterday, would you live each moment like your last, leave old pictures in the past, donate every dime you have, and would you call old friends you never see, reminisce old memories, would you forgive your enemies, and would you find that one your dreaming of, swear up and down to god above, that you'll finally fall in love, if today was your last day

if today was your last day, would you make your mark, on ending a broken heart, you know it's never too late, to shoot for the stars, regardless of who you are, so do whatever it takes, cause you can't rewind, a moment in this life, let nothing stand in your way, cause the hands of time, are never on your side,

if today was your last day, if tomorrow was too late, could you say goodbye to yesterday, would you live each moment like your last, leave old pictures in the past, donate every dime you have, and would you call old friends you never see, reminisce old memories, would you forgive your enemies, and would you find that one your dreaming of, swear up and down to god above, that you'll finally fall in love, if today was your last day,

'maybe I am...'

memory and humanity, 2008

maybe I'm a pessimist, what if all the grey clouds in the sky, follow me home tonight?, maybe I'm an atheist, what if there's no god waiting to greet me, at the end of the working week, maybe I'm just delicate, maybe I am..., just not clever enough to persuade, everyone of the reasons, we're failing each other, ands it's not the same, not the same to me, no it's not the same, not the same to me, maybe I'm an optimist, what if all the damage that was done, was never down to me? maybe I'm a liar, what if all the truths that I have told, are better left, better left unsaid? maybe I'm just delicate, maybe I am..., just not clever enough to persuade, everyone of the reasons, we're failing each other, and it's not the same, not the same to me, no it's not the same, not the same to me, so I'll pack up my bags and leave, what sticks to me, sticks to you like glue

Human Library

Recently I have been swamped with books, and to be honest, have no idea where to begin. I have still got to finish Money, Martin Amis, which I think is a bit slow to me, and seems to be describing the life of a lazy individual in New York, with way too much money and a severe lack of sense, but there we go, I will keep going, mainly because I like the writing. I have also purchased Barak Obama's Dreams from my Father which, although I have only read about ten pages, is brilliant. Also having been interested in the TV series Mad Men, I jumped at he chance to pre-order The King of Madison Avenue: David Ogilvy and the making of Modern Advertising. The book is about David Ogilvy who is played by Jon Hamm, an advertising king in New York. Very exciting. 

As well as reading and working on my Extended Major Project I have been listening to plenty of music from all genres. Lately having watched Five Easy Pieces (1970), I managed to get hold of Chopins Fantasy in D minor, Bach's Chromatic Fantasy and fugue, Mozart's E-Flat major Concerto, Chopins Prelude in E minor and finally Mozarts Fantasy in D minor.
